Memories...

There's that thing about boats...the clanking of the halyards on the masts, the salty feel in the air,

the blues and greens and whites... takes me back to  being around the harbors growing up in Florida. Familiar sounds and smells and I'm a kid again, looking at the different boats and wondering where they're going, walking along the piers and looking for my  Dad.

Honokohau Harbor

Morning sun, swaying masts, lazy talk between boating friends...this was our background as my painting student and I worked some magic at the Harbor yesterday. As paddlers glided by, we quietly painted on till one BIG boat parked right in front of us and blocked our scenery! Aieee!! But still, I had worked just enough to capture this...

enjoy!
